MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

18 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Citroen C3 (DU08 AEM) between January 2011 and February 2024.

The record contains 14 passes and 4 failures.

The most recent test on 06 February 2024 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 4 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (5 issues), Windscreen (4 issues), Brakes (3 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues), Lighting (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 8 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Central Rear Exhaust has a major leak of exhaust gases (6.1.2 (a))”; “Nearside Drive shaft joint constant velocity boot split or insecure, no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (6.1.7 (g) (”; “Offside Front Anti-roll bar linkage ball joint excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”.
